Tuareg amulet " Tsherot" 01.09.906
Called amulet or charm by Westerners, the term Tsherot in Tamajaq means "a paper with message", those not the box is important but the message it contains. The text written by an imam is either a coranic verse or magic signs to protect the bearer from various dangers. The present amulet box is made of a front brass plate, with a diamond center piece, and a back iron sheet. It is mounted on its original leather strung.
